The End of July Approaches!


Wow!

The end of this "RUN" is here! I found it to be fascinating and a lot of fun!

I am scheduled for a 15 mile run tomorrow! I plan on starting early (for this swing shift worker) between 6:00 and 6:30 AM.

What are your plans? It looks like we are going to do 300 miles this month! Thanks everybody!

The question comes up now - Are we going to continue this? I would like to! How do the rest of you feel about it?

Remember - The run does end, but not the running!

Remember... The run does end, but not the running!

VRR - Starting July with a Bang!



Welcome Sally and Kassy! Great start to a new month!

300 miles is our goal! Of course these things are easily changed!

Remember that if you celebrate too much on the 4th, you can always enjoy a nice long run to get it all together!

Have a good run everyone!

VRR Update - June 2008


We are so close for June. With almost everyone reporting, we are less than 20 miles from our goal!

We need to think of July and what goals we should set for this month.

Let's get some ideas going for the month of July!

Let's Run for the Fallen


If any of you listened to Phedip 142, you will know about this run called Run for the Fallen. A team of runners are running 1 mile for every soldier lost during Operation Iraqi Freedom (I believe they may be using the count of Americans lost).

They started their run yesterday (Flag Day here in the US) and will end the run in Arlington Cemetery after running over 4000 miles. They invite everyone to run a mile on August 24th to support the effort.

Just for fun, I started a Challenge on RunnersPlus to see if we can get enough runners to virtually run the 4000+ miles between now and August 24th. If you want to participate, sign up!!! And as I recently discovered, you don't need a Nike+ system to participate. Create an account and just manually log your miles.
